Intel will announce its Coffee Lake processors on August 21. They will be the last generation of 14nm(++) Core processors before 10nm Cannon Lake and Ice Lake, which is described as using a "10nm+" process:

In an unusual move for Intel, the chip giant has ever so slightly taken the wraps off of one of their future generation Core architectures. Basic information on the Ice Lake architecture has been published over on Intel's codename decoder, officially confirming for the first time the existence of the architecture and that it will be made on Intel's 10nm+ process.

The Ice Lake processor family is a successor to the 8th generation Intel® Core™ processor family. These processors utilize Intel's industry-leading 10 nm+ process technology.

This is an unexpected development as the company has yet to formally detail (let alone launch) the first 10nm Core architecture – Cannon Lake – and it's rare these days for Intel to talk more than a generation ahead in CPU architectures. Equally as interesting is the fact that Intel is calling Ice Lake the successor to their upcoming 8th generation Coffee Lake processors, which codename bingo aside, throws some confusion on where the 14nm Coffee Lake and 10nm Cannon Lake will eventually stand.

[...] Working purely on lithographic nomenclature, Intel has three processes on 14nm: 14, 14+, and 14++. As shown to everyone at Intel's Technology Manufacturing Day a couple of months ago, these will be followed by a trio of 10nm processes: 10nm, 10nm+ (10+), and 10++.

Tick Tock has given way to plus signs everywhere.

Coffee Lake will include the first mainstream 6-core chips from Intel, including the Intel Core i5-8600K and i7-8700K.

    The best thing to happen to non-white people is white people; not only are white people ashamed of their own achievements (such as tolerance, or multiculturalism, or the ending of slavery as a matter of culture), but white people will be the first to throw themselves into the fires to advance non-white people.

    White people cheat on their taxes. They are all egotistical douches, like President "Many Sides". They will all end up in prison, just like the little white boy cornered by the Antifa, who then decided he was not actually a white supremacist, [youtube.com] since he had been in prison (I am not going there, at all, but it does bear mention that most of the core of the German Nazi movement were twisted gay as fuck. Read "Gravity's Rainbow"!)

    Intel, never trusted them since they teamed with Microsoft and white supremacy.
